You Are One in a Melon!

Hello friends!

Today, the Flourishes design team is sharing projects created using some of the fantastic stamp sets that are included in the Gambler's Sale.  I chose to work with Wild for Watermelon, and went with a softer color palette than I've done in the past with this set.

The card base is Classic White, and the patterned papers are from Basic Grey's Fresh Cut paper pack.  Some pretty pink ruffled gingham ribbon and a few enamel dots give the card a bit of personality.



I die-cut the sentiment piece with the Perfectly Pierced Classic Hourglass Die Set.  I stamped the sentiment in Memento Pear Tart and Memento Rose Bud.  I lightly air-brushed the background with my G2 Copic marker.  I stamped the watermelon slices in Memento Tuxedo Black, and colored them with the following Copic Marker Collections:

Inside, I stamped the sentiment in Memento Rose Bud, stamped the image in Memento New Sprout, and added a couple of strips of patterned paper across the bottom.

This image is a reminder that indeed, Spring and Summer will get here eventually, we all have just about enough of Winter around here.
Beautifully colored image Cindy, if I close my eyes, I can remember the sweetness of an ice cold slice of delicious, sweet watermelon!!!!!
Now, can I ask you and your readers a question? Please, what does this announcement at the Flourishes on line store mean?? "All the items now in the store will be sold off-never to return again....." Please, if this means that Flourishes is closing it's doors, I will be totally and completely in shock!!!!!
Ladies, please say it isn't so!!!!!
